"Bananas. This is now my 13 year-old son's signature dish. We found frozen fruit prevents the mixture around them cooking, so you get sloppy bits. Better to defrost or even warm the fruit. Strawberries work well, but we come back to bananas."

"Peanut - see my comment above - roughly equal weights of sugar and fruit is traditional. The set is achieved by the balance of pectin, acid and sugar concentrations. Strawbs can vary quite a bit in water content and acidity, and have generally fairly low pectin quantities, so people add pectin and lemon juice for a reliable set. The jam will not spoil by heating repeatedly up to setting point, but its fresh flavour will be spoiled if you let it burn at all. I still have a jar of last year's jam from this recipe (I tend to make too much of all sorts of jam, as I have a couple of kids) and it is fine. By the way, strawberries in November? How exotic!"

"Great recipe, substituted blueberries for strawberries, still worked great. I would recommend it to anyone who asked about pancake recipes. "

"The kids say 'Yummy!'. I agree that it's a bit of a learning curve to find your way around the whole caramel aspect, but the result is very patisserie."
